The siege of Orleans had lasted long. The english had tried to take the city but the resilience of the defenders held out. It held out long enough for a relief force to arrive to lift the siege. The famed french knights attacked the besiegers. The clash was tough and brutal.
A knight found themselves in the middle of the assault. Their mount died to arrow wounds and they had to get off the dying courser. They spotted a french knight who also had their mount die, but were stuck in the stirrups. The knight rushed over to help him once the knight had helped him up. When the knight pulls him up they get hit with an arrow in their thigh The knight cries out in pain. A highpitched voice came from beneath the helmet. The other soldier looks at the knight a moment as if suspecting something before going to hide behind a palisade to avoid the arrows.
The knight left alone lifts their helmet revealing a face with soft features and hair sticking out from beneath the coif. The knight was a woman. She ripped off some cloth with her teeth to wrap around the thigh where she was wounded before she lowers her visor and returns to the others under the guise of a short knight.
